The MSpec portable Fast Responding Radiation Spectrometer and Dose Rate Meter will instantly measure any material for the presence of radioactivity, whether it is General Waste, Medical Waste, or Scrap Metal.

Operation of the MSpec is completely automatic once the easy-to-set operational parameters have been decided upon. Simply position the unit in close proximity to the object that needs to be scanned and listen for the varying audio alarm to sound and/or the displayed readings to increase. The MSpec scans suspect material and quickly analyses to determine if and what nuclide is present then categorizes the result as Medical, Industrial, or Natural Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM).

The selectable display readout will show the desired units of measure such as Counts per Second (CPS), Dose-Rate (nSv/h), Exposure Rate (µR/h), or Accumulated Dose (nSv).

The MSpec stores all results in a record which can be downloaded via USB into RadComm’s Vehicle software for archiving of information and be accessed for further data analysis or emailing of reports. Remote servicing/diagnostics and software updates of the MSpec can be achieved by utilizing the RadComm software. The MSpec was designed specifically for the Waste and Medical industries to quickly and effectively establish whether isotopes are medical in nature. This feature allows users to determine what the next steps are according to the company’s ISO/SOP standards and/or State/Provincial requirements. This can significantly save time & money by eliminating the need to quarantine trucks/equipment and allow them to remain productive on the road.
